I went in for my sons birth certificate and the representative that helped us was super friendly and helpful. In fact everyone we encountered was courteous and friendly. It was a very quick and easy process.

This place is so poorly managed. Long Lines and disorganized with little at hand information about the patient. Makes appointments and we come from far away to get here for treatment and told when we arrive to come back when medication is fully finished. Maybe they could sinc this information with better accuracy if they took the effort. Kind of scary to come here because of so many poor people and you do not know if some are contageous. You almost hate to sit on the seats for fear of dirtiness. I do not know its just too busy for a waiting room. We had come here for travel vaccinations in the past and all was okay then. We were told we could get cheaper vaccinations at Rite Aid which was immensely helpful and kind from the gal who works there.

This was my first time here. I attended a community based organizational meeting. Everything was very clean, well kept, and orderly.

Nice inside and clean no line when I went . Lady that helped me was very unprofessional in my opinion . I work front desk and have standards to customer service and hers lacked . I went up to the front and stated I needed to pickup my daughter’s birth certificate and while staying seated she told me to fill out a clipboard with forms. Mind you there were 10 clipboards all different colors and piled in a small corner not organized where it would be easy to know what one to fill out with little direction. She could have at least got up from her desk which was maybe 4 steps to come to the front and pull out the correct form for me to fill out. Instead I had to go through them and figure it out what one was correct. Wasn’t super big deal but professionalism for sure lacked and made them look bad in my opinion otherwise was fast process.
